This PR fixes the following bad dates that were accepted previously:

  • date: 01-01-24 was accepted as 0001-01-24
  • date: 24-01-24 was accepted as 0024-01-24

These will result in an error now.

Recently in 300d61e the US-style dates were eliminated. Unfortunately, these are still very much used. I propose we continue supporting such dates, but we only accept unambiguous forms.

Therefore, this commit implements and tests the dates of the following formats:

  • XXXX-XX-XX -- fully corresponds to yaml date format
  • XXXX/XX/XX, XXXX/XX/X, XXXX/X/XX, XXXX/X/X -- legacy, often occurs in (old) US-based sigmas
